Joe Armstrong & Alan Kay - Joe Armstrong interviews Alan Kay
Erlang Solutions
Joe Armstrong, creator of Erlang, interviews Alan Kay at Code Mesh. They discuss the meaning of object orientation, message passing, the META II paper, and the state of computer science.
HN uses it in debates about what OOP originally meant, since Kay's message-passing view lines up with Erlang's processes.
